Just wondering if all the literary agents are listed in the yearbook guide or if there is an additional list elsewhere?

I'm self publishing an e-book, a lot less hassle and risk than print publishing.
Smashwords do free guides to marketing and publishing online, PM me if you want links as I'm in the app.

Hi! Just posted for the first time and saw your question. I have had two books published by Egmont, The Magnificent Moon Hare and The Magnificent Moon Hare and the Foul Treasure'. I'd recommend an agent as publishing contracts can be scary! I used to work in TV with no representation but need an agent now. I'd recommend going through an agent rather than just sending to a publisher as they see so many, and an agent can open closed doors.
Yearbooks are useful as is the internet. Good luck, I hope your book takes off!

Thank you both!
Louieb - well done!! Had a quick look. They look amazing! Are all the agents in the year book?? It doesn't seem to be the case?? How many did you submit to if you don't mind me asking?
